What is happening to American culture is a sight to behold; Older generations seem so entrenched in not absorbing anything new, they are not only denying young people the right to have a voice in their moment's aesthetics; they also want to mummify the creators of their nostalgic era into undying slop machines.
generative AI makes perfect sense for this purpose: "The young won't be allowed to create anything. The young should not have a voice. Every cultural product for our future Utopia will be made in the image of an fictional bygone era by the all knowing vending machine."
And then they watch their cultural output stagnate and enshitify and say it's because of the "woke" and the "DEI".
